Sometimes when you try to get a file or directory listing the following error occurs:_ ftp> ls 425 Can't build data connection: Interrupted system service. ftp> The frequency of the problem is higher if the delay is higher - ie, You almost never see it locally but almost always on a trans-pacific hop. If anyone wants to try it just try anon ftp to extro.ucc.su.oz.au. Interestingly, our M/120 has the same problem but a Magnum in another department seems to work. Has anyone else seen this problem? -- ________________________________________________________________________ Ross Rodney Cartlidge | rossc@extro.ucc.su.oz.au University Computing Service, H08 | Phone: +61 2 6923497 University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia | FAX: +61 2 6606557
